How to use these materials

Creating materials in your own language

 

We hope these help you in the collective fight against coronavirus (COVID-19).

​

In the Additional Resources folder you will find templates that can aid you in creating your own educational materials. Some of these are with text in English and some are blank.

​

The English versions can be translated into your own local language. The blank templates have illustrations on them but are otherwise blank, enabling you to insert your own text.

 

Please ensure that the text you add is WHO approved and only tailored to your local context. It is important that these posters are only used to spread reliable information.

​

Clicking the download button under each poster will download the JPEG version of that poster.

If you would like a PDF or InDesign file, these links are included under the gallery or in the description of each image. Choose whichever format best suits your needs and the editing software you have access to. 

​

Some free editing software for producing posters and pamphlets can be downloaded here (Affinity Photo) and here (Inkscape). Some free editing software for producing short films can be downloaded here (Lightworks).

 

If your file is too large for distribution over mobile phones, use online file conversion tools like (if MP4 video) https://www.ps2pdf.com/compress-mp4 or (if PNG image) https://compresspng.com/.
